These headphones sounded really good in the store but you know it’s different once you own them and your by yourself listening to your playlist...that’s when you start to notice the high points or low points of your new acquisition. For me the fact that I knew I made the right purchase sat in for weeks. You can even Bluetooth call in these things! Cmon now! I wear headphones all day as a part of my job and so comfort is a must and these are easy to wear for hours. They feel very light, however, remember your not wearing ear bud’s - and you won’t want to be. Each ear peice is adjustable and moves down nearly if not an inch, so they could fit some pretty big heads. And one of the only true complaint I have is that the court is a bit too sure although it is been sturdy for me since I’ve been using them at work. And other features include a pause/play button and that doubles for the front and rear shuffle. There is the real star, the bass enhancement button and the bass on these headphones you guys....the bass is phenemonal. The option of having extra bass on these headphones isn’t a gimmick it’s an instant upgrade button. My last pair of headphones were Beat EP’s and while they had all around decent bass and clarity, they broke. The beats would lose mesorably to the Sony’s in a head to head test. Two last things. The earphones rotate 90 degrees for storage and they have a tilt function built right in to help conform to your head. Lastly, THE CLARITY! The only thing that could possibly compete with the rich, tight, sensual bass gold these headphones produce would indeed be clarity, Yes I want things to sound as if I am in the studio recording with them. Beautiful highs and mids and layer after layer of composition by the producer and artist. What these things really do is allow you to hear and analyze each individual layer of music playing. It is a surreal experience cranking your favorite song on these bad boys.

If you're in need of great over the ear headphones these are a must have. The sound quality is great and the added bass function is even better. I would defiantly recommend these to anyone in the market for this type of headphones.

A very powerful, comfortable and compact pair of headphones!

I got this Bluetooth headphone as a gift , and now so happy with that. 1.high base if u wanna use it in gym. 2. good quality 3. Long distance use

I pulled the XB950B1's out of the box and was immediately impressed with their heft. They felt well made and sturdy. However, that heft and the fact they don't fold makes transporting them a bit of a chore. The fact that no case is included only makes that issue worse. I knocked off a star due to this. However, the impressive sound quality and battery life make up for the bulk of this shortfall. After an initial charge (the instructions say 4 hours, in real-life it was more like 2-1/2), I turned them on and started the pairing process. It was seamless and nearly instantaneous with my iOS device. The connection has remained strong and I have noticed no dropouts or disconnection issues as of yet, which is more than I can say for other Bluetooth headphones I use. Once paired, the phone prompted me to download a couple of Sony's apps to help the headphones work "better". I only downloaded the "Headphones Connect" app which allows you to adjust the bass boost between -10 and +10. The headphones themselves have a manual switch for toggling the bass effect but the app adds another layer of boost or reduction. The app also includes some DSP effects, all of which seem to render the sound quality subpar to my ears so I leave that setting in the Off position. The fit of this set is very nice, although it does seem to be a little tight for extended periods of wear. As I wear glasses, the extra pressure can be slightly uncomfortable but there is definitely no chance these are going to slip off or shift while in use, so that's a trade-off I'm willing to have. Even without music playing, the thick foam earcups block a good bit of external noise, and although these are not noise-cancelling headphones, they are about as close as you can get without paying for that feature. The sound quality is great but it takes a little tweaking of the settings to keep it from being too bass-heavy. An increase in the bass boost muddles the highs some, but these headphones definitely weren't designed as studio monitors. They pump out sufficient volume from the 40mm drivers that I cannot imagine cranking them all the way up, and I like my music loud. Even at higher volumes, the sound doesn't seem to "leak" out where it can be heard by people around you. The battery is rated at 18 hours, and while I haven't tried stretching the battery life nearly that far, I can say that after 4 hours of moderate volume listening, the app shows the battery at about 75% charge. I tend to try to keep my batteries topped up in case I need to grab them on a moment's notice for an out-of-town trip, so that's as far down as I've let the battery drain so far. Sony includes a 3.5mm audio cable for attaching these headphones directly to the device which is supposed to extend the audio reproduction range but I have yet to try it out. For my device it would require the use of a Lightning to 3.5mm adapter which I genuinely dislike using. While having this ability is a nice added feature, I don't foresee me ever really using the cord since I bought a set of wireless headphones for a reason. If you're looking for audiophile quality sound, look elsewhere. But if you want a set of wireless cans that will pump a lot of volume (and bass you can practically feel), these Sony's are an excellent place to start.
